What constitutes an Assault Weapon?
there is no definitive definition. . . that's the point.
Wrong! See my post above.Pre Klinton ASSualt weapons bill an "assualt rifle" was any rifle that could be changed from full auto to semi auto with the flip of a selector switch.
No need for apologies. You just helped me prove the point of how cleverly deceptive the anti-gun crowd can be.My humble apologies.
A weapon that I would use to assault an enemy position. I have not seen any lately at gun shows or shops. Mine would have to have auto fire capability (not burst) and use a medium size round, be short enough to handle in confined quarters.
Exactly my point. The term "assault weapon" was coined in order to sound ambiguously similar to "assault rifle" which has an actual definition. The worst thing is, the gun grabbers have been so successful in their use of the term that they've even gotten a lot of pro-gun people using the terms interchangeably.Wrong! See my post above.
Again the Assault Weapons Ban of 1994 had nothing to do with Assault Rifles.
Assault Rifles are regulated by the NFA of 1934.
This is a perfect example of anti-gun subterfuge
And it's worked well for them.It is simply a divide and conquer technique, allowing one to define what segment of the firearm population they wish to battle at a given time so they are not overwhelmed and can control the amount of opposition they face at any given time.
Asking for facts often is a good fix when gun grabbers run their mouths.
Calibers and firing modes aside, it's a silly term. It's a rifle, a pistol, a shotgun, or just a firearm. I wish folks would leave it at that.
